Identity Crisis?

I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other!’ Rev.3:15

 

I dislike it when people are on the boarder line. If God is God then serve Him. If you want to be hot, be hot. If you want to be cold, be cold. You cannot be an eagle and remain with the chickens. You need to leave the chickens alone. It may appear lonely but the sight of other eagles is sharp and they go after what they are interested in. The question to you if you are a single man is do you want a chicken wife who will compete and fight you for everything? Or do you want an eagle wife who will be faithful to you till the end? The choice is yours. If you are married already but can spot some chicken traits in you or your spouse, it is not too late. In fact that is the reason these secrets are being uncovered. Cry out to God for a change. The only reason you have been behaving like a chicken is because you have hung around chickens for too long. You are having an identity crisis. By God’s grace an eagle is calling you higher today.

The story is told of a farmer who saw a baby eagle and put it in the chicken pen. The eagle soon began to think and behave like chickens. When a hawk shows up or a storm gathers, like the chickens it too will run for cover. One day while pecking at the sand, the eagle saw a creature hover and thought ‘I should be able to do that’. The creature noticed, came lower and beckoned unto the eagle. As soon as the eagle attempted to fly, chickens cried out ‘don’t leave us, you know we grew up together’. The eagle listened to them and remained. The next day, the same scenario but this time the craving on the inside of the eagle was more than the pull or pressure of the community of chickens. And for the first time this eagle attempted to fly. It could not fly too high but it flew to a rock and stayed. And with encouragement from the creature it went further and further. It soon started to glide over the farm but it could hear the chickens say ‘you must think you are an eagle. You better get down here and let’s go home’. But the eagle flapped it wings and it bade them goodbye.

Thought: This is the story of a lot of us. Shut out the voice of the chicken community, follow your eagle instinct, and begin to fly.

 

Prayer: I declare in the Name of Jesus that I will not be earth bound, where the Master is, there I will be also, in Jesus Name.
